Heathrow drama

A South African Airways jumbo jet from Johannesburg was forced to abort its landing at Heathrow when it was less than 350ft from the ground after a BA 747 that had arrived 60 seconds earlier missed its exit from the runway. The SAA jet went into a steep climb and landed safely a few minutes later.
